A Light Cooling Cream of Chickweed & Chamomile

Cooling Cream is a light, steroid-free cream for sensitive skin that feels hot, tight or uncomfortable. Chickweed, a traditional cooling herb rich in soothing mucilage, is blended with chamomile and Roman chamomile oil in a light sunflower base. It leaves a cool, calm feeling on the skin, and it is gentle enough for children over three.

The Herbs

Cooling Cream brings together traditional cooling herbs with a light, protective base. Chickweed and chamomile soothe and calm sensitive, irritated skin, while sunflower oil supports the skin's natural barrier. Together they make a cream for cool, comfortable skin at the first sign of a flare-up.

To Cool and Soothe

Chickweed (Stellaria media): A traditional Western herbal remedy celebrated for its cooling properties, rich in mucilage that supports hydration and the skin's natural barrier against irritants.

Chamomile (Chamomilla recutita): Helps ease irritation, calm the appearance of redness and keep the skin balanced.

Roman Chamomile Essential Oil: Soothes flaky, irritated skin and gives the cream its soft, comforting aroma.

To Protect

Sunflower Seed Oil (Helianthus annuus): A light base oil that supports the skin's natural lipid barrier without feeling heavy or greasy.

Texture & Scent

A light, breathable cream that settles into the skin with a cool, soothing feel and a soft, gentle chamomile scent.

For everyday dryness and irritation, something thin, cooling and free of the usual irritants. Chickweed is the traditional botanical for it and chamomile the traditional companion, which is what this cream is built from. Persistent or spreading itch is worth a doctor’s opinion rather than a cream.

Yes. It contains no steroids of any kind and is entirely plant-based. It is a cosmetic cream for skin comfort, not a substitute for anything your doctor has prescribed, and if you are using a prescribed cream, keep using it.

It is formulated for sensitive, irritated and flare-up-prone skin, and many customers use it on skin that is prone to eczema. It is a cosmetic, so it is there for comfort and moisture rather than to treat a diagnosed skin condition — that is a conversation for your doctor or dermatologist.

Yes. This gentle, natural formulation is appropriate for children over three years old who are experiencing the dry, uncomfortable itch of childhood skin sensitivities. We always advise performing a brief patch test on their inner wrist for 24 hours before applying more widely.

Stellaria media, a low-growing annual with small white flowers, common across Britain and considered a weed by every gardener who meets it. It is rich in plant mucilage, which is the reason for its long use on irritated skin.

Yes. It is light and non-occlusive, which makes it comfortable on facial skin that is flushed or reactive.

This one is thin and cooling, for the moment skin is irritated. The Hydrating Cream is richer and for ongoing daily dryness. They work in sequence: Cooling Cream first, Hydrating Cream over it to hold the moisture in.

We use a minimal, Ecocert-approved blend of benzyl alcohol and dehydroacetic acid to keep the formula sterile and free from bacterial growth.
